Second Regular Session, 90th General Assembly
EIGHTH DAY, Tuesday, January 18, 2000
Speaker Gaw in the Chair.
Prayer by Father David Buescher.
God of creative power, fill these women and men you've gathered with all the creative impulses necessary for their work today. In the shadow of their deliberations help them sense the presence of all those they serve, both those who are graced with plenty, and also those who suffer want; those whom society holds up for adulation, and those whom our culture tends to abandon. May the laws they prepare to enact, help to build up all the people of Missouri. And God, help them to continue to experience their work for us all as adventure and discovery, uncovering and building an even happier state in matter and spirit. Bless and help them, Your sons and daughters, today, and all days, world without end. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
The Speaker appointed the following to act as Honorary Pages for the Day, to serve without compensation: Lauren Decker, Erin Pohl, Kristin Merlo, Katie Hooper, Sarah Coyne, Brian Light and Jessica Light.
